After a few actual weeks, and once you get access to Mortimer's Island, the game is very fun. Just play at least once every day in between gaming, work, or school sessions, and before you know it there will be a whole bunch of awesome stuff in the game.

The game to me is more of a quick fix kind of thing, where I play for a good hour, then go on to do something else.

Edit: If anyone wishes to play AC:NL with me my FC is 1607-2550-2476. Can't really add anyone right now. Rather busy sadly, but once I get a chance I'll add you OP.
